There was a coredump seen on an application on a server. According to the mdb output, it was found that it was caused due to a SIGABT signal being sent to the application. Is it normal for an application to dump a core, in case it a SIGABRT signal is sent to it.

You can read http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man7/signal.7.html Each signal has a default disposition and SIGABRT has CORE as default action.
